Origin 21 Celestial Aura Area Rug vs Safavieh Terrace 808Y Area Rug

Buy the Origin 21 if you want a reversible, handmade flat-woven rug for indoor living areas and like a warm brown geometric look. Buy the Safavieh Terrace if you need a rug that can handle a patio, sunroom or high-traffic spot and prefer a green geometric pattern. The Origin 21 is the more decorative, craft-oriented piece; the Safavieh is the more practical, weather-ready one. Owners of flat-woven polyester rugs report they lie flat and clean easily but feel thin underfoot, and the Safavieh's low 0.25-inch pile has the same thin feel.

• Choose the Origin 21 Celestial Aura if you want a reversible, handmade flat-weave for an indoor room and prefer brown over green.
• Choose the Safavieh Terrace 808Y if the rug may see sun, damp or spills and you want stain- and UV-resistant construction.
